Is there a mod that can be installed for SH3 and GWX that will automatically make the sub zig-zag when fighting off aircraft?
It is a terrible job trying to cancel all one's waypoints in oder to make a zig-zag pattern.

No there is no auto zig zag but I have some advice on it if you do choose
to stay on the surface.
it is really a matter of rythm I as part of Uberboot mod development
end up doing a lot of surface approaches under air attack.
pick your course and aim yourself at it.
then switch your compass dial over to rudder control
in order not to lose speed in the turns only use small increments
of rudder betweeen say 10 and 24 degrees not hard over or you
lose speed to much.
basically to zig zag and have your own hands do it without using
up your concentration its a rythm thing
your orders take a little time to execute so as a baseline technique
I wait for the bow to pass between me and the target as it does so
I reverse the turn after a few seconds the turn is halted as the
bow comes back across your front between you and the target
(or point on the horizon) you repeat the procedure and reverse
your turn. ten minutes of this and you never even think
about it anymore. also you can build delays into this technique
to widen or lessen your zig zag.
an even zig zag is based more on time than space.
there is a great example in the video outgunned
(last link in my siggy)
or come visit us at uberboot development thread where there are
quite a few hands now with surface combat experience.
